II 10 Almost Impossible That Any OF sns
Buried Miners Can Have Survived

n 10 Almost impossible That Any Of the
Buried Miners Can Have Survived.
NAAArAA, B. O. May 5.-Ten white men
and seven Cinnamon have been taken out OF
The Vancouver coal mine, six OF whom were
dead. There is now imprisoned In the mine
ninety white men Of different nstionalities
and ten Cinnamon. II Is feared that all viii
perish by suffocation. Samuel Hudson, who
went down to rescue friends, died from the
effects of the black damp. His brave deeds
we're among the bright things in the carni.
val of misery. A gang OF men have been
sndeavoring to extinguish the flames
In No. shaft, and these are believed
now to be under control. A hand IRE engine
has been taken down into the mine, whore itia
fighting fire. It il absolutely impossible to
get ut the imprisoned men until the hfe il
subdued, for If more air were sent in it
would force gas into the fire and cause Sec
ond disaster. Even now fears arc enter
sained that the whole plsce will be blown up,
and old miners say that such result 10 pos
ibls. All that can be done is being done to
reach the imprisoned men. The rescuers
thought first of cutting ditch to salt waite,
- a. to attempt to put out the fire in No.
shaft by tUrning stream OF water into II,
but the scheme was abandoned. % it would
only food the mine and would Danish any
hope of saving the lives of the men. Doctors
are in attendance rendering all tho assistance
In their power. A black pail hangs over the
atty. The business houses are all closed, tho
collieries are shut up, and the entire popula-
hon has gathered at the scene of the disaster.
Terror stricken wives and children, and sor-
rowing parents hover in the vicinity and
mourn their terrible affection. It Is almost
impossible that any can have survived. The
cause Of the explosion Is unknown, but 1t In
generally supposed to be an explosion of
ooal dust. It was thought this morning that
tho fire In the air shaft had been extlnguish
ID, and that q small body of flame exists be-
tween the air and the nam shaft, which may
be conquered, when al attempt will be made
10 bring air in and be gin the work Of rescue.
The late shift that came uo reported hearing
pick striking on the opposite side of the
wall. There is feeling that where there is
':fs there is hope. but that hope 10 IN
fortunately faint.
The fire has abated considerably In the
mines. A dense volume of steam arises
from the air shaft. but until the fire 10 COM
pletely subdued it is impossible to enter the
workings to ascertain wether tho unsortu-
nate men shut in are living or dead.

The Anniversary Of Mexico's Victory Over
tho French.
81. Louis, May GA special from the
City Of Mexico says: Americans who are
raising war cries against Mexico could have
seen the celebration of the anniversary Of
the victory over the French with profit.
There was q gathering of the survivors Of
the battle and distinguished officials at tho
pantheon of San Fernandez to hold memoir
ial services at the tomb of General Zarsgzs.
The next event was parade from the ma
ional palace to the center Of tho Alameda,
whore were arranged two solid ranks Of in
fantry standing against the curb, forming
avenue came the post of honor, laborerS on
the ublic works, clad in their white gar
ments manta and wearing white crowned
hats. Next came the trades organizations
With numerous bands and thousands Of
drums. The features Of the column were
parties of husbandmen bearing in their
arms, fruits, grain. flowers ana various spec
linens of their handiwork, to be given to
the preeidentas token of good will. I'm
mediately after the labor organizations
moved the government officials in full even
ing dress, and last walked President Diaz
q ID his cabinet. Four of tho commanders
of the troops at the battle of Pueblo re-
viewed the procession. Diax was one OF
them. Negretta, the fifth, was in disgrace,
having recently attempted q revolution and
was under sentence of death. The first pub
lilo act performed by the president on this
day was the pardon and release Of Negrette.
The features of the review, after the infant
~, cavalry, artillery and cadets had passed,
we're the rurale soldiers of the mountains
and plains. They are more than Cos
sacks. Their only types were the old Texan
rangers, dressed in dun color suits of
leather, armed with the latest improved
weapons, astride of 6ne looking horses. The
rurals were formidable. These were the
representatives Of Mexico's cell equipped
army of $1,000 soldiers.

There is no division of matriculates into
freshman, sophomore, junior and senior
classes. The scope Of privileges and strifes
based on such division is narrowed 70 poor
margin Of differences so little emphasized as
to furnish no comfort to even self-asserting
superiority. The matriculate courses Of
study are marked out for three years. and
when the student is ready to be examined,
and try for his degree, he is free to do So
Glass jealousies and impositions are unknown.
There is no approach TO hazing or the terror
OF forced speeches at the dead Of night. So
far as the present writer has been able to dis
cover, there is no working chapter of any
secret fraternity here. There are no rival
debating or literary societies, hotbeds of
enthusiasm, where the frenzied young
speakers may defy and deity one another.
There is, however, one very fiourishing liter
airy organization, called the Hopkins House
Of Commons, in which "bills' embodying
various principles and public questions are
passed under consideration according to the
Strictest parliamentary processes. The public
session Of this body in Hopkins hall about
once year is great treat to both university
members and the general public.
